<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 993336, member: 19463&quot;]Just in case this is new to some, I made a picture showing the four Falling Horseman poses.&nbsp; Well over half are FH3 with FH4 making up most of the rest.&nbsp; FH2 is scarce but FH1 is downright hard to find.&nbsp; Some do not separate FH1 from FH4 but on &#039;Kneeling&#039; coins the horse is on the ground with the rider touching (or almost touching) the ground.&nbsp; FH4 shows the hose with rump more in the air so the rider is holding on to avoid sliding off over the front.&nbsp; Both FH1 and FH2 show the Roman more on top of the horse while on FH3 and FH4 he is more behind than above.&nbsp; FH1 and FH2 coins are early issues only so the coins are large (AE2) size.&nbsp; The other two come both large and small.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>The Falling Horseman is the most common Roman coin - millions still exist.&nbsp; Most are coins of Constantius II with Constantius Gallus and Julian II also common.&nbsp; Constans is considerable more scarce and catalogs claim there is a very rare coin of Magnentius but I have never seen one.&nbsp; Of my samples, the FH1 is in poor shape but it is my only FH1 and it is also my only Constans.&nbsp; I need to be on the watch for an upgrade.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
